  1. 1. The Quiet Ear

    Cover of 'The Quiet Ear' by Raymond Antrobus

    The Quiet Ear is a lyrical memoir interweaving personal history, criticism, and biography as Raymond Antrobus recounts growing up deaf—discovering missing sounds, using hearing aids, and moving between London, Jamaica, and the United States. It explores his experiences in mainstream and deaf education, the intersections of race and masculinity with miscommunication and identity, and how literature and D/deaf cultural figures helped him find connection and voice.
